It's Easter weekend and the annual parade is tomorrow. Gothamist is a fan of parades, even when they don't involve elephants, so we wanted to make sure you had the details. It begins at 10am and runs through 4pm, going up 5th Avenue from 49th to 57th Streets. We found this photo [left] at the National Archives of the parade in 1900, taken by an unknown photographer. There were no marching bands or floats like today, just good old fashioned bonnet-wearing pedestrians.
